EDITORS COMMENTS
Training cavalrymen and artillerymen how to ride during World War I, c1914-c1918. This print captures a crucial aspect of military training in the early 20th century. In an era dominated by horse-mounted warfare, it was imperative for soldiers to master horsemanship skills before heading into battle. The image showcases the innovative use of full-sized dummy horses as teaching aids. These meticulously crafted replicas allowed instructors to impart the rudiments of riding without putting real animals at risk or depleting valuable resources. The men depicted here are fully engaged in their instruction, absorbing every detail from their experienced instructor. Amidst the backdrop of war, this photograph highlights the dedication and commitment required from both trainers and trainees alike. Each soldier's focus is evident as they strive to become proficient riders, knowing that their lives may depend on these newfound skills on the battlefield. This piece belongs to the Historica Graphica Collection and serves as a testament to Britain's role in World War I. It encapsulates not only a moment in time but also represents an entire generation's sacrifice and determination during one of history's most significant conflicts. As we reflect upon this image today, let us remember those who served with bravery and honor during World War I – both human soldiers and their trusty equine companions.
